Book Tag

Monday, August 28th, 2006

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions.
5.
Don’t you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your
closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is
closest.
6. Tag three people.

Taken from "Goldie: A Lotus Grows in the Mud" by Goldie Hawn:

They are half giddy and half hysterical.
"Did you see the moon?" asks Anita.
"I know," says Susan.

It doesn’t make much sense and it doesn’t have to. It’s fun, it’s a game!

I’m tagging Sean, Jamie and Anthony L! :)

Eight Weird Habits

Monday, August 14th, 2006

I’ve been tagged by Gezelle so here are my 8 weird habits:

1. I write my tasks and to-do’s in three separate planners. I’m not OC. I just repeat to myself, to myself, to myself.

2. I read the newspaper starting with the supplement sections (lifestyle, entertainment, etc) first and the News section last. Also I read from back to front; the movie guide, classified ads and even obituaries are more interesting than the headlines don’t you think?

3. When I read a book, I start from the cover page, literally. So I also get to read the copyright page, foreword and dedication.

4. I collect journal notebooks but I don’t write on them. My handwriting is not pretty so it will just ruin those fancy notebooks. I will just write my thoughts on this blog and keep those journal for smelling purposes. Yes, I like smelling paper. And when I was a child, I sometimes eat them too.

5. I have two Jolina dolls. I don’t have a habit of collecting them. I just have a habit of having weird friends.

6. I stare at billboards. This becomes a problem when I’m driving along EDSA or Commonwealth because I take my eyes off the road just to have a glimpse of the latest billboard ads. They’re getting very creative nowadays, even going 3D. Kinda remind me of those old COD Christmas displays.

7. I find comfort in the comfort room. You know how people turn to food when they get stressed? Me, I go to the comfort room and just sit there. Oh wait, I also eat when I get stressed. I eat, then I go to the comfort room.

8. I look like Herbert Bautista. Again this is not a habit. I just happen to look like him. Really.

There you have it folks! Spread the weirdness around. I tag Caro, Jill, Minmin, Karen F., Rhea, Ronan, Naz and Tec. :)
